Thanks Lazola, appreciate the feedback.

Glad to see MTN back on MyBB!

While its great that MTN finally have a rep here again don't thank him just yet I think he is confused and further compounding the issue.

I tried following the link (www.mtn.co.za), but could not log in - was told account was blocked due to too many incorrect password attempts. Funny, could log in at active.mtn.co.za. So I phoned 808 and was told:
1. The special does not exist - was stopped months ago. (This goes against what MTN-Lazola said above).
2. I should go to mtnsp.co.za and from there to active.mtn.co.za. But as mentioned above, the special is nowhere to be found from there.

:confused:
Can MTN-Lazola please advise?

Maybe he should go double check with someone else first.IN FACT EVEN THE CALL CENTER AGENT GAVE YOU FALSE INFO since the 300mb for R99 is a valid promo that you activate right now on your prepaid or voice contract but from 500mb-2gb the prices are for dedicated 24 month data contracts and not data bundles that you can add on.

I highly doubt these prices are correct,atleast not the last three....theres no way 500mb will be cheaper to buy than 300mb.

Would also like to know if Lazola is legit.

An official rep would at least be able to spell correctly, indicating that he passed Matric, or at least know how to use a spell-checker. ;)

Either you are also confused or we are going to hold you to this,seriously I will buy an MTN sim to get this deal if its true so don't make me buy it for nothing.

Are you saying those last three prices i.e R69 for 500mb,R99-00 for R1GB and R139-00 for 2gb are available DATA BUNDLES that we can add on a normal voice contract and voice prepaid adhoc or recurring?:confused:


Those prices are only available on contract. Just dial *141*6# for PayAsYou available options

3. How it Works

3.1 The Promotional Internet Bundle Offer is available to new and existing MTN customers on PayAsYouGo, TopUp and Contract.

3.2 The Promotional Internet Bundle Offer applies to once-off internet bundle purchases by customers, as well as recurring internet bundle purchases subscribed to by customers during this Promotional Period. Promotional pricing and additional internet value will revert back to the standard rates (ICASA lodged rates) once the Promotional Internet Bundle Offer has come to an end.


from http://www.mtn.co.za/Support/Legal/TermsAndConditions/Pages/InternetbundlepromotionTCs.aspx

its all just so cun****ulating

LOL...MTN's web site is FUBAR!!

Just errors all the way....let me guess, all the devs are on leave?

It's so bloody embarrassing, cos their ads on MyBB also just give you errors.

EPIC FAIL

Their site must be one of the ugliest around and for a company the size of MTN this is not excusable.

Think they need to update after 5 years.

So is it so hard to just admit the website is wrong? :whistling:

Nothing wrong with a mistake here and there I'm also in business and we make errors sometimes but trying to twist it makes you seem sneaky.Out with it just be honest,thats not your data bundles rates available to normal voice contracts or prepaid customers is it?

Maybe they extended the promotion so not a huge deal that in itself,but the information itself is completely misleading.

very misleading think we have a case for ASA or CPA?
I checked again and its still there but we cant purchase it and nowhere does it mention that the 500Mb / 1 GB and 2 GB are contracts only.
